Welcome to Fat Puppy Store! In 2015, Dawson Gurley bought his first puppy - an adorable, fluffly, goofy white Labrador. He quickly realized just one dog wasn't enough.

Since your puppy is growing, he needs more nutrients and calories than an adult dog. This is why puppy foods have a higher level of protein and fat to support growth, as well as nutrients like DHA, an omega fatty acid found in mother's milk. Once your puppy reaches adulthood, he doesn't need as many calories.

Dogs, like humans, require a well-balanced diet rich in nutrients to be happy and healthy. Natural treats are good for dogs since they help to boost their immunity. Protein, for example, is vital for immunity, according to experts (and natural dog treats are exceptionally high in it).

In every portion of food, you give to your pet, ensure there are enough vitamins and minerals in their food. Minerals and vitamins keep your pet's metabolism and immune system functioning normally.

You can estimate your puppy's full-grown weight by using our puppy weight calculator, which follows the simple formula: Adult weight = (Puppy weight / Puppy age in weeks) * 52.

So only expect 4 to 5 hours of being awake and only about an hour at a time. If they're kept awake and playing, you could both be heading for a stressful time.

How often should my puppy eat? Puppies should eat three times a day from weaning through four to six months, if possible. After six months, twice-a-day feedings are fine. But if you're not able to feed your pup three times a day, don't worry.
